Label: Sub Rosa

レアな最初期音源を2種を纏めたお得過ぎる編集作！！70年代末から音制作を開始、空港を使った大規模サウンドインスタレーションや録音技術を主な楽器としたプロジェクトまで、毎回ハードコア且つ燻し銀の表現を貫くスウェーデンの重鎮Carl Michael Von Hausswolff。氏が活動初期に残した2枚のシングルサイドLP、1983年[Conductor]、1986年[Life And Death Of Pboc]を、1枚のLPとして纏めたSub Rosaによる新装リイシュー版。マッシブなドローンサウンド及びダークアンビエント・ファンを虜にする、高密度でドス黒い構造は間違い無く玄人好み。大推薦。





2 rare historical recordings (1983 and 1986) originally released as single sides and gathered here for the first time.

"Conductor might be my favourite composition and Life & Death Of Pboc might be my most sincere. Conductor was my first composed piece with no obvious reference points ... Life & Death Of Pboc was the second. These two compositions gave me the title Godfather of Dark Ambient."
